Revisiting Lowther Gardens in Lytham.

Last August we had a weekend away in Lytham St Annes and revisited the miniature golf courses in the area. One of which was the Crazy Golf course in Lowther Gardens. On our first visit to the park we'd seen a sign for a Putting course, but couldn't find it. This time however we did!

The Putting course was the 754th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

A revisit to the Crazy Golf course on Saint Annes Pier.

Last August we had a weekend away in Lytham St Annes and revisited the miniature golf courses in the area. One of which was the Crazy Golf course on St Anne's Pier.

The Crazy Golf course on the pier in St Annes on the Sea was the 741st visited and 435th played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. It was the sixth course we've found on a pier, with others found at Clacton-on-Sea, Southsea, Brighton, Sandown and Southend-on-Sea.

MiniLinks Majors in Lytham Saint Annes

The team at MiniLinks in Lytham Saint Annes have announced the line-up of MiniLinks Major competitions to take place on the seafront Par-3 miniature golf course this year. The dates are as follows:

• Wednesday 4th - Sunday 8th April - MiniLinks Masters
• Thursday 14th - Sunday 17th June - MiniLinks US Open
• Thursday 19th - Sunday 22nd July - MiniLinks Open Championship
• Thursday 9th - Sunday 12th August - MiniLinks PGA Championship
• November - February - MiniLinks Winter Trophy

The contests are open events with players handing in their scores at the end of their round.

Last year I competed in the MiniLinks US Open, MiniLinks Mini Open and MiniLinks PGA Championship finishing in tied 13th, 15th and tied 24th positions respectively. The Par-3 course is a tricky layout, but has some lovely greens to putt on. I certainly had a mixture of weather to contend with during my rounds too!

The MiniLinks Par-3 Miniature Golf course became the 742nd visited and 437th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

This year the course is also holding the first-ever MiniLinks Women's Open Championship. This event will also coincide with the actual golf major - The Women's Open - which is taking place a short distance away at Royal Lytham & St Annes golf course between the 2nd and 5th of August.

Crazy Golf at Lowther Gardens in Lytham

Playing at the Lowther Gardens Crazy Golf course in Lytham.

The Lowther Gardens Crazy Golf course in Lytham

Prior to our trip to St Annes on the Sea to play in the last Mini Major tournament of the season at MiniLinks Golf we'd noticed that Lowther Gardens in Lytham was home to a Crazy Golf course - how we'd previously missed it we don't know as we've been visiting Blackpool and the surrounding seasides since 2008!

The 9-hole Crazy Golf course at Lowther Gardens was good fun and a unique layout.

In our minigolf match-up I picked up the win scoring a 28 to Emily's 35.

This was the first time we'd had printed tickets like this for our round of Crazy Golf! Putters and balls are hired from the Lowther Pavilion Theatre

The course was the 443rd played and 753rd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The sign at the park also lists Putting as an activity, but we couldn't see that course.

Lowther Gardens in Lytham is well worth a visit, it's a very pleasant spot

Bonder and Bort Simpson

I do like a good bootleg. This is anything but!

What a ludicrous piece of street art we spotted in St Annes on the Sea yesterday.

I always though Bender would be taller than Bart
